to rule the world — enhypen. [collab call & masterlist]
“there’s a room where the light won’t find you.
holding hands while the walls come tumbling down.”
this is to rule the world, an enhypen collab call hosted by yours truly, @/neo-shitty with the theme: sci-fi/dystopian.
this started as a mere solo project i started wayback january 2022 when i decided it was a great idea to put sunghoon in the hunger games. i never got to finish it and only recently picked up the project again, 3 years later, when i couldn’t find fics similar to it on enhablr (a fine, i’ll write it myself moment).
i decided to host a collab to open the opportunity for other creatives to share works centered around a sci-fi or dystopian theme as i’ve noticed the significant lack of it—whether because these works gain less traction or out of a hesitance to try out something beyond the norm.
inspired by @elikajinnie and @mssishipi who had works of the kind i was looking for. kudos to your big beautiful brains and your presence on this hellsite is a blessing ヾ(≧▽≦*)o
update. as of sept. 8th, all slots for the collab have been taken. thank you so much for your interest!

guidelines for writing.
˗ˏˋ the theme is sci-fi/dystopian. you can choose to either create a concept of your own or create a story set in an existing sci-fi/dystopian universe. however, should you choose to write a fic inspired by an existing universe (ex. the purge, the hunger games, divergent, etc.) please remember that PLAGIARISM IS A CRIME. do not claim the fic as solely your own and add the corresponding au tags as needed.
˗ˏˋ in-fic main pairing may be member x reader or member x oc only. no member x member (main) pairings. however, you are welcome to feature other members to make up the cast of the story, but your chosen member should remain as the main focus.
˗ˏˋ all themes are welcome so long as they are labelled accordingly. this also goes with potential content and trigger warnings which must be indicated in the warnings section of the fic. smut, suggestive content, and other dark themes are allowed so long as they’re not written by minors. i trust that *you* know your morals. write the members as characters or face claims, not as if they’re the actual idols themselves. do not bring what you write in fiction into real life.
to justify, dystopian-themed media is an avenue where appalling real-life conditions under corrupt regimes can be mirrored and shed light on. i deem it necessary to be explicit and unfiltered in criticizing such matters in media—even in mere fanfiction.
˗ˏˋ entries must be full-length fics with a minimum word count of 1k. there is no maximum word count. honestly, go off and knock yourself out.
how to join.
˗ˏˋ kindly reblog the collab post so we can reach a wider audience and fill in the remaining slots.
˗ˏˋ only one spot per member is available. if they’re still available, please send me an ask or dm me with the member of your choice then wait for my confirmation. before you send a message, please be sure that you’re committed to write the fic. while i can’t do anything if you choose to withdraw, i would very much appreciate it if you informed me beforehand.
˗ˏˋ tag me on your fic (and on your fic teaser, if any) when you post it so i can reblog it and add it to the collab masterlist.
toffee's note: i have no idea if collabs are still a thing nowadays but it wouldn't hurt to pitch this into the void. some people still ended up finding my previous collabs so i figured there's no harm in trying out this one.
if you're interested in joining, send me an ask or hop into my dms!
welcome to into the fandomverse, a collaboration project for all engenes who enjoy writing on tumblr. i recently hit 3k followers and am hosting this event in celebration of said milestone. all details about the collab are under the cut. i hope you consider joining and spread the word so that your friends can join too :’)
collab masterlist

there are 21 slots in total i.e three for each member.
slots will be given on a first come, first serve basis so that the allotment is fair.

member x reader and member x oc are the only pairings allowed. no member x member fics! remember to be inclusive of all races and body types if you are writing a x reader fic.
appearances of members other than the one you have chosen are allowed, but please make sure that the main focus of the fic is your chosen member!
your fic can include sensitive subjects as long as they are not romanticized, portrayed in bad light or represented incorrectly. also, please make sure to put proper trigger warnings above the read more cut once you post your fic.
no racism, ableism, homophobia or similar prejudices. you will be removed from the collab if you are found guilty of harboring them.
the code word is fandom. please mention it while applying for a spot so that i know you have gone through the rules.
the minimum word count is 1k. there is no maximum word count so feel free to let your imagination run free. please note that drabbles, blurbs, reactions, headcanons, series, smaus and timestamps will not be accepted. oneshots only!
plagiarism is strictly prohibited.
be respectful and kind to the other members who are a part of the collab. no hate will be tolerated.
this is not a rule but it would be nice if you had a discord account. i have made a server for easy communication and interaction between the collab members. it’s okay if you do not have an account!! i will update you through tumblr dms :’)
if you have any further queries, don't hesitate to dm me <3
𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗟𝗬:

the tentative deadline for posting your entry for the collab is 30th september, 2024.
the deadline is mostly for namesake and you are free to post your submission whenever you want, but please do not take undue advantage of the time flexibility.
i understand if you want to withdraw your application from the collab but please think carefully before applying.
ABOUT · we all have heard of right things going wrong, something along the lines of right person wrong time, things that weren't supposed to be this bad— but how about the other way round? perhaps, you wake up one day to find out your new neighbour is your ex and suddenly you're gravitating back towards him, a sworn enemy that makes you heart flutter after the one time he stood up for you, the person you rejected last week now lives in your head rent free, falling for the person who was supposed to help you with your crush— everything that started in all the wrong ways possible, but the stars plays into your hands, and maybe you could get something unexpected out of it.
GUIDELINES —
1 · first come, first serve. no reservations of slots. there is a 3 slots limit per member ( i am not writing 😆 or maybe i will if any slots are left, who knows ) to join, send an ask with the member you're writing for and the two keywords that are hidden in the rules. reblog the post once you've been accepted ( for clout and boosts 🫶 )
2 · your work can be x reader aligned or x oc aligned. no idol pairings.
3 · as obvious from the theme, this is supposed to be an all fluff collab. of course, you can start off with any genre, switch to something else in middle, go off with your imagination, but long story shot, a happy ending is a must. additionally, you can take inspiration from movies / drama / novels or poetry / songs & artworks / anywhere else, with proper credits. first keyword is earl grey.
4 · no nsfw works, suggestive is fine for legal members only. all the warnings should be mentioned as such. you work should have synopsis, genre, warnings and word count before the main content. use a readmore cut after 500 words. add the tag ❝ @ : uc. ❞ in the first five tags for me to track it. alternatively, you can tag me in your work or send me the link to make sure your entry reaches me.

✎ FEATURING. enhypen’s 02z line, itzy

the first encounter.
“order for y/n!” the barista shouts, calling out another order soon after.
sending a text to a group chat with your best friends, agreeing to meet them at the cafeteria of your university for lunch, you walk up to the counter and grab the only cup of coffee you find sitting there.
ryujin: bro when will you get your ass over here
you: sorry there was a long line for coffee :(
you: I’ll be there in two seconds just wait a bit
you go to exit the cafe but feel a light tap on your shoulder.
“hi,” the boy smiles awkwardly. “I think I accidentally took your coffee, you should have mine as well.”
“oh, really?” taking a glance at the paper cup, you notice the scribble of someone else’s name right on the side. you squint trying to decipher the letters written in thick sharpie. “jack?”
“jake, actually,” he politely corrects you. “sorry about this whole thing. I also kinda took a sip before I realized it wasn’t my order. I can uhh get you a new lid if you’d like.”
you nod slowly, “sure.”
you follow his lead as he backtracks to the opposite corner of the cafe.
“is it weird to say you look familiar?” jake says in an attempt to keep the conversation going. “I swear, I've seen you around before.”
“you go to belift university, right?” you ask for confirmation and receive a nod from him in response. “we go to the same college then. maybe you've seen me passing by.”
his face contorts into confusion as he starts eyeing you suspiciously, “how’d you know I go to belift?”
“your sweatshirt,” you point at the glaringly large font across his chest.
“ah, right!” heat crawls up jake’s cheeks as he blushes in embarrassment. he grabs a lid from the condiment bar, and with shaky hands, replaces the original one with it. “forgot I was wearing this shirt. I mean belift. wait, what? I mean my sweatshirt. fuck, I almost knocked over your coffee. but yeah, my belift sweatshirt… you probably knew what I meant. sorry, I’ll shut up now.”
“cute,” you mutter under your breath, lip twitching into a smile.
“huh?”
“what?” you cough, feigning cluelessness. you point at your coffee cup still in his hand to quickly change the topic. “can I have my coffee back now?”
“yeah, of course,” jake says with confusion still evident in his expression.
“thanks.”
“no problem.”
the two of you head towards the exit and you thank him as he opens the door for you.
jake stops walking once you both are outside and no longer blocking the entrance of the cafe, which makes you second guess if that means you should stop too. playing it safe, you slow down your steps until jake addresses you again.
“most people have gone home early,” jake starts. “but I’m assuming you must’ve had a final today if you’re still in the area.”
your eyes anxiously wonder around.
you’re five minutes late to when you were supposed to be meeting your friends at the cafeteria, but they can wait.
“yeah, I still haven’t actually taken it yet,” you inform him.
“ah, I just finished mine this morning,” jake replies.
“must be nice to be free then,” you say half-jokingly.
“definitely,” he lets out a quick laugh. “well, I hope you ace your last exam. good luck!”
he holds out his fist in your direction.
you stare at his fist for a moment before shyly curling your hand to meet him in a fist bump, “thanks. good luck to you too!”
he waves you goodbye and you briefly mimic his actions before parting ways.
“shit,” jake curses under his breath as he continues walking in the opposite direction from yours, looking over his shoulder to see you already crossing the street. “I should have asked for her number.”
“I got your lunch,” ryujin pushes a tray of food towards you.
“you’re the best,” you breathe out, taking a seat across from your two best friends. “someone accidentally mistook my coffee for their’s while I was at the cafe nearby. that’s why I’m running a little more behind than I already was today.”
“eat quickly,” jay advises. “your exam is in thirty minutes, right?”
“yeah,” you confirm, taking your silverware and digging into your food.
“ew, slow down and take a napkin,” ryujin thrusts a wad of napkins into your hand. “you won’t attract anyone being this gross.”
“good, that means my plan to cosplay as men repellent is working.”
despite your sarcastic remark, you peel a napkin from the stack and wipe your month.
ryujin watches you and shakes her head, “you could be really good girlfriend material if you put your mind to it, just saying.”
“says the ‘it couple’ on campus,” you say, rolling your eyes.
ryujin scoffs, “we’re not the ‘it couple’ on campus.”
“oh, we so are,” jay confidently boasts, running a hand through his silky blonde hair.
“you’re so right, babe,” ryujin immediately switches in agreement, pressing a kiss to his cheek before leaning on the back of her chair where his arm is casually resting.
you pretend to gag, “throwing up in my mouth right now.”
“aren’t you even just a little bit curious about putting yourself out there?” ryujin asks, refusing to give up. “I could totally set you up with someone. you’re talking to the local matchmaker right here.”
“matchmaker my ass,” you laugh. “as if I’d put my love life in your hands, ryujin. but really, I’m just not interested in anyone at the moment.”
“the moment? the moment has been your whole life!” ryujin whines, her eyes so wide they could practically fall out of her eye sockets.
“ryu,” jay warns, moving his hand to squeeze her shoulder. “give y/n a break. if she’s not looking to go on a date, then she’s not going on one.”
“you talk like my dad,” you deadpan.
“I’m defending you and you still choose to insult me like this?” jay purses his lips, going back to scrolling through his phone while he snacks on a bag of chips.
“okay, no dating for y/n in the near future. got it!” ryujin animatedly summarizes. “but are you at least coming to hoon’s new year’s eve party with us?”
you furrow your eyebrows, “hoon?”
“sunghoon,” ryujin says in an obvious tone, giving you an incredulous look at the lack of recognition written across your face. “come on, park sunghoon! jay’s friend, park sunghoon. he’s dating hwang yeji.”
“am I supposed to know people through their couple status or something?” your voices drips with your usual sarcasm. “and jay has a lot of friends.”
“he was the one that treated us out on your birthday that one time,” jay adds, glancing up from his phone.
“oh, that guy!” you clap your hands together as you recall the brief memory. “yeah, he was nice.”
“so you’ll come?” ryujin looks at you with pleading eyes. “new year, new you.”
“don’t tell me you actually believe in that crap.”
“just give me an answer.”
“why so eager,” you let out a dry laugh. “do you need me to be the designated driver again or something?”
“you make us sound like asshole friends,” ryujin pouts. “and no, we just haven’t hung out much because you’ve been so busy over the semester. I want us to have fun together over winter break.”
“yeah, no pressure if you don’t want to go though,” jay says. “but if you’re coming, we’ll probably crash at sunghoon’s, so you can drink and crash there too or drive home if you’re bored.”
“okay, fine. I’ll see you guys there. new year, new me or whatever,” you cave. “but next time I want to do something, you can’t say no.”
ryujin smirks, jokingly grabbing your hand to give it a loose shake, “we have ourselves a deal.”
“now that you got that out of the way, you got ten minutes to book yourself to your class for exams,” jay casually reminds you.
“oh shit,” you hiss. you grab your tray and the remaining trash lying around as you get ready to leave. “bye guys!”
“bye, y/n!”
“see you later, love!”
“why don’t you ever call me love?”
“shut up, jongseong.”
as you rush out of the cafeteria, you pass by the famous park sunghoon you had been talking about earlier, almost crashing into him and apologizing for the near-incident with a quick ‘sorry.’ neither of you even have time to recognize each other as you continue speed walking away before the chance is offered.
“woah, you okay, hoonie?” yeji asks after watching sunghoon flinch from how you had almost crashed into him.
“I’m fine,” he brushes it off and sits down at their table.
he glances up from setting his food down to acknowledge jake, then decides to skip the greeting once he sees what the boy is doing.
“why do you have your physics textbook out?” sunghoon makes a disgusted face. “I thought you finished your finals already.”
“oh, I did,” jake clarifies. “but I’m reading some of the unassigned chapters from this semester. did you know that—”
“okay, you can stop right there!” sunghoon says while putting a hand up. “don’t need to know whatever wackass concept you’re going to ramble on about next.”
jake makes a blank face, internally thinking about how he should’ve seen that coming, “rude.”
“you’re always studying physics,” sunghoon whines. “get a hobby, loser. you’ll never get a girlfriend at this rate if you’re already in married to your physics textbook.”
“lay off him for once, will you? nerds have rights too,” yeji jokes with a lazy grin tugging her lips.
“very funny, yeji,” jake bites back sarcastically. he begins to pout as he picks at his food. “what’s wrong with being a nerd?”
“what’s wrong is that nerds like you,” sunghoon points his fork in jake’s direction. “have zero game.”
“what are you talking about?” jake says in an offended tone. “I got game.”
sunghoon raises an eyebrow, “oh, do you now?”
“yeah,” jake states as if it's the most obvious thing in the world. “I'm totally the ideal guy.”
“then go ask somebody out,” sunghoon cooly challenges him.
“you mean,” jake pauses, scratching the back of his head. “like right now?”
jake suddenly feels lightheaded. the thing about jake was that he was a easily likable person. he was kind, smart, and bursting with positive energy. his downside was that even though he had book smarts, it left him oblivious to the common sense of courage and confidence.
“why not?” sunghoon shrugs. “you sound so sure of yourself anyways.”
“okay,” jake bites his lip and rubs his hands together. “I got this.”
he stands from his seat at the table, taking a couple of deep breaths before searching for someone to be his target and taking off.
“wait,” yeji whispers to sunghoon. “he's actually doing this?”
“apparently.”
“and we're not going to stop him?”
sunghoon chuckles, “hell no.”
“hey, lia!” jake approaches the girl and her friend.
“oh,” lia makes eye contact with chaeryeong before forcing a smile at the boy. “what's up, jake?”
“you. me. new year’s eye party at sunghoon’s. be my date?”
“sorry, jake,” lia rejects. “I uhh... already have plans with my family.”
“ah, I see,” jake wants nothing more than to crawl into a hole and never come back up to reality. “maybe some other time then?”
“umm…”
“you know what? nevermind. sorry to bother you. and if I also made you uncomfortable, I apologize for that too—”
“jake,” lia interrupts with a tense smile. “it’s okay.”
“yeah. good. cool.”
jake turns on his heel and rigidly walks away, every ounce of his self esteem and social battery drained.
he can hear chaeryeong clicking her tongue, “that was awkward.”
jake agonizingly makes his way back to sunghoon and yeji, holding up a middle finger once he catches sunghoon’s chest vibrating at his attempt to suppress his laughter.
it was sad that the conversation was out of earshot for his friends, but they could already tell how it went.
jake returns to his seat and closes his eyes as he heaves a deep sigh.
“okay, so maybe I don't got game.”
the second encounter.
it had been around two weeks since the start of winter break and you were trying not to hate the idea of this new year’s eve party so much, but it wasn’t the most exciting thing you’d rather do when you genuinely weren’t a big fan of alcohol or people in general. you actually wished you were a fan of both of those things so it could make a night like this more enjoyable.
“remind me why we’re showing up an hour late to this party again?” you ask, slouching in the backseat of jay’s car.
“ever heard of being fashionably late?” he retorts while finding a space to park.
you snort, “you’re so lame, jay.”
“rip him to shreds, baby,” ryujin playfully blows you a kiss from the passenger seat.
you pretend to catch the kiss and shoot her a wink, “always, baby.”
“hey, I’m the boyfriend here!” jay says, a reoccurring joke that happens between the three of you.
“and I’m the side piece, your point is?” you speak without missing a single beat.
stepping onto the front lawn of sunghoon’s house, the party at least looked somewhat less unhinged than the other one’s jay and ryujin had dragged you to a couple times before. yes, you could hear the blasting music from the outside. and yes, you could hear people shouting and cheering from the backyard as the sound of someone cannonballing into the pool followed. but for the most part, it just looked like a normal house with festive decorations peeking from the windows that indicated this was indeed a chill new year’s eve party.
it had been long enough that you’ve forgotten what park sunghoon even looks like, but he gave you the impression of a very clean-cut guy, given your judgements on how good he was as a party host.
it was like a formal celebration to new beginnings, only with a bunch of unsupervised college students and alcohol.
“ryujin, jay!” you hear a female voice giggle right as you step through the front door.
ryujin let out a squeal, a rare sound you never exactly hear from her, “yeji, my beloved!”
‘people really do act differently in different crowds, huh?’ you thought to yourself.
behind the girl you now identified as yeji, you saw a boy standing behind her with his hand resting on the small of her back.
“this is our lovely y/n!” ryujin introduces you with an arm around your shoulder. “y/n, this is yeji and sunghoon. they're the second best couple on campus obviously.”
“yah, don't get it mixed up!” sunghoon laughs before greeting jay with some special handshake you had never seen before.
you wave at them shyly, “hi, sunghoon. hi, yeji.”
“hey, sexy!” a drunk hwang yeji saunters over to wrap her arms around you in a quick hug. “woah, I love your dress. it's so cute! I wish yuna was here right now. she'd fucking love this outfit.”
“umm... thanks,” you stiffly nod as yeji continues to awe at your dress with her hands gripping your shoulders.
“that's enough, babe,” sunghoon pulls yeji into his chest from behind. he looks coherent enough to function but at the same time has his bangs flopping over his forehead that make him appear sleepily tipsy. “sorry about her. she gets clingy after a drink or two.”
“it’s alright,” you say distractedly, choosing to bury your discomfort by watching yeji cutely thrash around in her boyfriend’s hold while asking for more shots.
“where's jake?” jay asks curiously.
jake? that name sounded familiar, but you couldn’t quite put your finger on it.
“he’s right here—” sunghoon lazily looks over his right shoulder and then over his left, still buzzed on the few cups of alcohol he drank previously. “oh, guess he disappeared somewhere.”
you all continue talking for another handful of minutes. sunghoon’s even generous enough to throw a couple questions your way in an attempt to make you feel included, which was honestly a breath of fresh air. you loved your best friends to death, but usually talking to other people with them is like sitting in the corner at a family reunion. it was your role as the quiet, antisocial friend.
though as enjoyable as it was to have a group to stick around with versus being alone, you realized how slow and random a conversation with two drunk people could be. the five of you eventually ran out of things to say.
sunghoon and yeji excuse themselves, sunghoon having to guide her by the shoulders to keep her upright as they disappear into the crowd.
ryujin lightly taps your shoulder, “jay and I are going to play beer pong for a bit. wanna come?”
“I'm fine,” you decline the invitation. “I think I'm going to find some water in the kitchen.”
“okay, bestie,” she gives you a side hug before linking arms with her boyfriend to walk further into the crowd. “you know the drill, be careful and call me if you need anything!”
“I will!” you shout back and begin wandering off to the kitchen by yourself.
it takes you a second to locate where the water bottles are stored, but you quickly manage to find them and take one for yourself.
“hey,” a voice says from over your shoulder, a hand reaching forward to grab one of the other water bottles in front of you. “y/n, right?”
it’s the boy from the coffee shop. if there was one thing you remembered, it was his kind face and australian accent.
“hi…” your voice trails off.
you forgot his name.
“ah, do you not remember me?” he says with a bit of disappointment. “I’m—”
“hold on, let me at least guess first!” you study his face, doing your best to dig into the back of your memory. “I remember you, I swear! something that starts with a ‘j.’ like jim, maybe james, or… wasn’t it jack?”
“close,” he laughs. “I’m jake. jake sim.”
he holds his hand out for a simple handshake, which you gladly accept.
“ah, you’re that jake,” you say in a dumbfounded tone. “sunghoon and yeji’s friend, right?”
“yeah, how’d you know?” he questions you with curiosity lacing his voice. not only was he surprised that you knew anything about him at all, but you actually were acknowledging him out of the friend group without yeji and sunghoon present.
“I’m friends with jay and ryujin.”
“ah, you’re that y/n!”
you nod, “yeah.”
basic, surface-level questions are asked as well as other miscellaneous talking points. there’s even an odd talk about the nice weather, which was unfitting for being indoors during the winter season but you don’t comment on it again.
“how are you liking the party?” jake switches subjects, scared that you’ll leave if the atmosphere drops. “is it any fun?”
“eh, you’re the highlight of it so far,” you shrug. “I don’t really drink or do anything in particular, so I just kind of float around until I decide to ditch.”
jake feels his heart begin to race. it was his first time hearing a girl make a comment like that about him.
“wanna ditch this party together?” he blurts out the invite, feeling a sense of boldness he’s never felt before. “I can drive us.”
an expression of uncertainty crosses your face, “where to exactly?”
“I said it more as an impromptu idea but…” he takes a moment to think. “we could go get breakfast, like they do in christmas movies and stuff. waffles, maybe?”
you contemplate if it’s smart to trust someone who’s essentially a stranger to you, but then your inner monologue comes in.
he knows sunghoon. granted, you didn’t remember who sunghoon was until jay had to remind you, but he bought you food once. and on your birthday too. that had to count for something, right? plus, jake seemed even sweeter. it may just be his puppy-like appearance carrying the assumption, but he was also a nervous wreck upon mixing up your coffees not to long ago.
you decide to trust him.
“it’s a bit late to be living out your christmas movie moment,” you say, noticing how jake’s face begins to falter into panic. “but I do like waffles.”
“perfect,” he lets out a sigh of relief. “let’s go.”
you end up sitting in jake’s car five minutes before the first of january, a fancy waffle from some food truck jake googled in your hand. the two of you are parked right in front of your house, all the lights inside are off from your parents already being asleep.
“it’s almost midnight,” jake states while looking at the clock on the car’s dashboard. “any new year’s resolutions?”
“no,” you shake your head. “I’m not into that sort of bullshit.”
you examine jake’s face. he looks like he’s about to protest your opinion but then stops himself.
“okay, that’s fair,” he says.
“do you have any new year’s resolutions?” you shoot the question back at him.
“yeah,” he shyly admits. he bites his lip, a habit you’ve noticed he does a lot when he seems nervous, as he stares at the road ahead. “I want to fall in love.”
“that’s a pretty bold statement,” you comment.
“yeah, I know,” he lets out a small laugh. “but I guess I want to stop being so shy and gain some confidence.”
three minutes.
“you’re social skills aren’t that bad,” you say honestly, hoping that will encourage him. “you’re awkward but in the most endearing way possible if that makes any sense.”
you manage to get a goofy grin out of him, “not a bad compliment, I’ll take it.”
“I’m not the most confident person either,” you admit. “I’m not sure if I’d wish to be that kind of person, but good for you. have fun falling in love.”
two minutes.
“it sounds weird when you put it like that,” he covers his face with the palms of his hands in embarrassment. “I just want to understand what it’s like, give romance a try and all that. have you ever been in love, y/n?”
“no. no, I haven’t.”
you take a large bite of your thick-layered waffle.
one minute.
“you have some ice cream right here,” he gestures to the corner of his mouth using his own face.
“here?” you try wiping off the dessert with the back of your hand.
“no, you’re just smearing it,” he reaches his hand out to lightly cup your face, wiping the mess with his thumb. “there, all clear.”
his stare travels all over your face shining in the dim moonlight. he doesn’t know what to do. to him, you’re breathtaking.
he wonders if he should just go for it.
three, two, one.
“I should go inside,” you say, causing jake’s attention to immediately withdraw from your lips. “I’m feeling a little tired.”
“yeah, go ahead,” he can sense the heat nearly flushing his face. he clears his throat as he unlocks the car. “happy new year, y/n.”
you smile before hopping out and setting a hand on the car door, ready to close it, “happy new year.”
the third encounter.
“and so we meet again.”
“how dramatic of you to say,” you chuckle, not expecting to run into anyone while standing in the middle of the candy isle at your local grocery store. “but what's up, jake?”
“nothing much,” the boy shrugs. he goes to stand behind you, browsing the rows of candy bags and chocolate bars closely. “just getting some snacks for me and my friends.”
“me too!” you gasp, easing up to the conversation. “ryujin and jay always make me go out to buy snacks. I swear, I love them to death but couples sometimes...”
you think back to fifteen minutes ago when your two best friends practically forced you out of jay's apartment complex. they were more persistent than usual, but you chalked that up as them needing time to make out another half hour before you returned.
“I know right!” jake enthusiastically agrees. “sunghoon and yeji are like that too.”
in all honesty, you thought you wouldn’t see jake again after the party. it was still winter break after all and who knew you’d randomly run into each other like this.
once you’re done picking out your snacks, getting some new recommendations from jake, you walk to the self checkout area together and don’t separate until you reach the parking lot.
he hesitates before parting ways, rubbing the back of his neck, “I’ll see you around?”
“yeah, see you around,” you wave him goodbye.
he walks away and you scold yourself for lingering on his figure, hoping you really would see him again some time soon.
“how was it?” ryujin asks right as you join them back on the couch of jay’s apartment.
“going to the store?” you say slowly, confused as to why ryujin looked so interested. “it was fine.”
“did anything interesting happen?” she continues to badger you.
“nothing really,” you shrug. “I ran into jake while I was there. that’s about it.”
“jake?” jay chimes in. “jake’s a pretty cool guy, really smart and trustworthy too. he’s like a brother to me.”
you give him a look, “why are you buttering him up to me all of a sudden?”
“I’m not,” jay denies.
“okay,” you mutter under your breath, deciding to open up a chocolate bar and start paying attention to whatever tv show was playing. “you guys are weird.”
the fourth encounter.
“oh my god, what are you guys doing here?” ryujin squeals in excitement, lowering her volume as much as possible in the movie theater.
“no way,” yeji gasps. “you guys are here to see this movie too! wow, same time and everything. isn't that crazy, hoon?”
“yeah,” sunghoon nods rapidly, trying to look casual. “what a total coincidence.”
“come sit with us!” yeji ushers the three of you with a bright sparkle in her eyes despite the dim lighting, discreetly elbowing sunghoon's side for his poor acting job when no one is looking.
jay goes to sit on sunghoon's side, while you and ryujin go to the opposite end. you take the farthest seat, leaving ryujin to sit in between you and jake.
“what’s wrong?” you ask her once you catch the alarmed look in her eyes.
you expect her to answer but instead she goes to face the other side away from you. confused, you go back to watching the movie trailers play without another word.
“jake,” ryujin whispers after a couple minutes. “would it be okay if we switched seats? I want to sit by yeji.”
you turn your head with a surprised expression, overhearing her request, “ouch, is sitting by me not good enough for you?”
“yah, it's not that,” ryujin instantly denies and clicks her tongue. “plus, you don’t even like hearing me talk during movies anyways.”
you stare at her for a moment before sighing and leaning back into your seat, “whatever.”
jake stands up to switch spots with ryujin, sending you a lopsided smile.
“popcorn?” jake offers.
reaching your hand into the bag, you nod, “sure.”
you sigh, “they're totally trying to set us up, aren't they?”
“yeah, they're really obvious,” jake says in agreement.
the amount of times you have seen jake within the past month was astounding to you. you've seen him at the mall, at restaurants, and now that you are back to attending classes, you even see him frequently around campus.
you wonder every now and then how many times you’ve passed by him without knowing who he was, but lately it feels rather impossible to not notice him everywhere you go.
you recall the time when it had dawned on you that there was more to your relationship with jake than pure coincidence, it was one particular memory that had made you realize.
“oh, you met jake at the party?” ryujin gasped over the phone.
it was the day after, ryujin following her routine of giving you a check-up call after she was done taking care of her hangover.
“actually we met a couple weeks before,” you mentioned. “he was the one who accidentally switched our coffees on the last day of exam week.”
“how adorable!” she gushed, and in that very moment, you regretted telling her any of that. you could already predict where the conversation was now heading. “so, would you say he’s your type?”
“I’ve already told you, ryu,” you warned, your voice growing tired. “don’t try playing cupid with me. I’m not interested in him like that. I’m not interested in anyone.”
you could picture ryujin’s face as you heard her scoff, “sounds to me like you’re in denial.”
“am not,” you firmly shut down her accusations. “yeah, he’s cute and all but—”
“wait, did you just call him cute?”
“huh?” you stuttered, not processing the words you let slip out. “okay, whatever—”
“no, you never call anyone cute!” she exclaims. “you’re attracted to jake sim.”
“and so what if I am? he’s just some nice guy,” you tried to reason, not wanting to make it a big deal.
ryujin was the one with the hangover, but why did it feel like your brain was suffering?
“why are you so afraid to date, y/n?” ryujin’s voice softened. “I know you don’t want to open your heart out to people, but you can always start out slow. it’s okay to date just to date, and if you fall in love, then so be it. the trick about falling in love is that it’s spontaneous. it just happens.”
“I don’t know,” you told her honestly. “maybe a part of me does want to date him, but you know me, I don’t want to commit to something that seems all sweet at first but isn’t.”
“don’t let this opportunity pass you by, y/n.” ryujin offered her last attempt of advice. “dating is different for everyone, but for the most part, you date someone to get to know them. you won’t know unless you try.”
and now you’re here. walking outside the movie theater, feeling a sense of deja vu as you head to jake’s car. those four of your so-called friends were awful at making excuses, especially sunghoon, but you went along with their shenanigans.
jake wasn’t bad company anyways.
the drive to your house is nice. it’s filled with jake’s music softly playing from the aux cord, the both of you talking about whatever comes to mind, and along the way, you stop to get gas and grab some gas station slushies.
“cherry is the better flavor,” you still argue ten minutes later, sipping on your slushie.
his lips stretch into a straight line, “what’s wrong with blue raspberry?”
“blue raspberry is simply irrelevant,” you say. “cherry is the classic flavor of childhood.”
“I won’t win if I keep arguing with you, will I?”
“nope.”
the both of you laugh, silence in the air as you let the current song playing finish.
“so what should we do about the whole situation with our friends trying to get us together?” jake finally brings back the topic.
“we can just ignore it, right?” you suggest. “they’re only trying to make us see each other more, and to be honest, I don’t mind that. you’re pretty cool in my opinion.”
“really?” he says, an underlying tone of disbelief.
“yeah, really.”
the conversation is cut short when he pulls up to your driveway.
“thanks again for the ride,” you thank him, unbuckling your seatbelt. “not that you had any other choice than to leave me stranded at the movie theater.”
he chuckles, “don’t worry about it. I’ll give you a ride anytime.”
“I’ll keep that in mind,” you say as you exit the car.
you go to shut the door behind you but hear jake call out your name.
“by the way, just out of curiosity,” he starts nervously. “what’s the motivation behind your friends getting you to date?”
“I’m not someone who opens up to others easily,” you explain. “it's not like I'm closed off to the idea of dating someone for forever or anything. I'm just looking for somebody that I’d actually be compatible with, you know?”
“would you...” jake stops himself from finishing the sentence.
would you say we’re compatible?
you tilt your head, “what?”
“what?”
“no, what were you going to say?”
“oh, it was nothing.”
“okay...”
“goodnight, y/n.”
“night, jake.”
the fifth encounter and the start of many more.
“are you stalking me?”
you tilt your head up to see just the person you had in mind. he waits for you to meet his pace as you stroll through your campus side by side. it was later in the afternoon, so not many students were passing by the classroom buildings at your relatively small college.
it had been over a week or two since you last saw him.
you tsk, “no, are you stalking me?”
“you wish,” he says, his face giving off the impression that he wished he could take it back. “sorry, that was creepy. it was meant to be a joke.”
“I figured, jake,” you burst out into a small fit of laughter.
“I missed talking to you,” he confesses. “I wanted to say this a long time ago, but we should exchange numbers.”
“yeah,” you laugh at the fact that neither of you had mentioned that before. “we really should.”
you grab your phone from your pocket and set it up to add a new contact.
“here,” you hand him your phone and he does the same.
jake pokes your arm, quickly catching your attention as you notice him holding his phone up to take a picture, “smile!”
you fix a closed lip-smile onto your face until he puts his phone down.
“your turn,” you snap of picture of him before he can even process what’s happening.
“wait, I wasn’t ready!” he tries to steal your phone but you hold it to your chest. “not fair, y/n.”
you stick your tongue out, “get over it.”
“you just got out of class, right? want to get something to eat and catch up?” he nudges your side.
you stop in your tracks.
“I’ll unfortunately have to pass,” you have to turn down the offer. “funnily enough, yeji asked me to help her out with an assignment since we share the same major.”
“ah, my own friend is stealing you away from me,” he teases lightheartedly, suppressing his actual disappointment. “I’ll let you do that then.”
“I’ll text you later.”
“yeah, I’d like that.”
it takes approximately seven seconds for him to build the courage to say what he’s been wanting to say all along.
“hey!” jake catches up to you. “before you leave, do you...”
“go on,” you stare at him expectantly. you weren’t going to let him leave you hanging like last time. “what were you going to say?”
“do you want to hang out sometime?” he finally spits out the question. “like make plans instead of coming across each other by happenstance.”
“can you call it happenstance if most of it was a set up by our friends?”
“I guess not,” he pouts for a split second before regaining focus. “but seriously, I want to see you again.”
“like on a date?” you ask for clarification.
jake sheepishly smiles down at the ground, “if that's okay with you.”
ryujin’s words stick to the back of your mind like glue.
“don’t let this opportunity pass you by, y/n. dating is different for everyone, but for the most part, you date someone to get to know them. you won’t know unless you try.”
you liked jake sim, it just took you some time to admit it. each day that went by without you seeing him made you unable to deny the fact that you missed having him around when he was gone.
maybe it couldn’t hurt giving it a try like ryujin said.
you place an innocent kiss on his cheek, “that'd be more than okay.”
it takes almost every muscle in his body to not lose his composure and faint right on the spot.
“great, it's a date then,” he takes a step closer, brushing a loose strand of hair behind your ear. as silence falls upon you, he takes the chance to speak again. “your eyes are so pretty. I think they remind me of layla’s.”
you take a step back, “…layla?”
“my dog.”
“I remind you of your dog?”
“wait, I didn’t mean that in a weird way. it’s just that you have really pretty eyes that sparkle in the sunlight… like my dog, layla. please don’t be offended.”
“we’ll just forget the last twenty seconds never happened,” you say for his sake and for yours.
“let me phrase what I really meant to say,” he straightens his posture and closes the distance again. “what I was trying to say is that you look really beautiful up close.”
“such a flirt,” you smirk teasingly, “do you say that to just any girl?”
“no, only to the girls I like,” jake a grin appears on his lips for a split second before it begins to falter. “was that corny?”
“just a little bit,” you laugh.
“damn, I keep slipping up,” jake joins in on your laughter. “you’ll still date me, right?”
“only if it’s too late to back out.”
“unfortunately for you, your back out card has already expired.”
“shit, already?” you jokingly curse under your breath.
“would it be too soon if I asked for a kiss?” he asks for permission with a crack in his voice.
you raise an eyebrow, “too eager to save it for our first date, sim?”
“if anything I’m late for not doing it at midnight on new year’s day,” he says, mentally applauding himself for sounding so smooth. “so can I?”
your eyes bore into his, “you’re already hovering over my face so why not.”
jake crashes his lips onto yours, intoxicating you with one sweet and simple kiss.
you finally understand that night in jake’s car, his new year’s resolution. it all begins to make a little more sense.
falling in love didn’t seem like such a bad idea now that his lips were pressed against yours with his hand gently caressing your hair, and even when the kiss breaks with an awkward laugh, you wouldn’t have it any other way.
in your mind, there was no better new year's resolution than being with jake sim.

Note that the movie doesn't have to be only the Disney princesses, but any Disney movie!
➳ first come, first serve! there will be 12 spots open as me and lia will be taking up 2 spots ourselves. there are 2 spots open for each member. to be added, all you have to do is dm me or @jungwoniics the member you chose to be your main focus.
➳ you can feature other members or add your own ocs to make up your cast but the chosen member should be your main focus! pairings should be reader x chosen member or oc x chosen member only. no member x member is allowed!
➳ strictly no smut! both me and lia are minors! though suggestive writing is okay but you must be at least over 15 to do so. and no suggestive writing will be tolerated for Jungwon or Ni-Ki. No one born under the year 2007 should enter the Collab! that's the age requirement
➳ you can include deaths, killings, etc in your theme but please do not go too much graphic with the details cause, after all, this is a fairytale collab. make sure to state all the warnings at the beginning of your fic!
➳ The minimum word count is 800 words. no maximum word count, write as much as you want but make sure the fic crosses at least 800 words so that means no reactions, blurbs, drabbles, smau(s), or timestamps are allowed.
➳ please do not spread any hate between the writers or to any writer participating here or else your participation will be terminated immediately! plagiarism is strictly not tolerated, if you do then your participation will be terminated immediately!
➳ the due date: the end of 2022, the deadline could be adjusted if needed so lmk if you need some more time. the last dropout date: October 2022, please inform me or lia if you want to drop out! no hard feelings!
➳ if you have any further questions, please contact me or lia, we would be more than glad to help!
➳ optional but follow me and @jungwoniics for further notices. having a discord is needed because after you've been accepted, I or lia will send you a link to join the server.
➳ please remember this is a writing collab so feel free to join! do not underestimate yourself, if you want to do it, then do consider joining! it would also be a great help if you could reblog this post for a larger platform, thank you!
